[opensuse] kdewallet troubles
Mozilla's recent kneeling down before the gay hatemongers has pressed me to abandon my long dependence upon Firefox and Thunderbird. I've long used Konqueror as my primary file manager, so extending it to web use has been no problem; and advice from friends has induced me to try Kontact for email. Unfortunately, I somehow got Kontact wrapped up in kdewallet, and now can't seem to get out of it. If I ever knew, I don't now know kwallet's password, and looking into the kwallet manual told me I could open kwalletmanager and maybe do something to recover. It won't open at all. I click on the icon in the application launcher, and nothing happens. I type "KWalletManager & in a terminal, and get "command nt found". But when I try to do anything at all in Kontact, I get a wallet popup demanding the kwallet password. I tried deleting the email account, but now can't create the replacement. Anything I can do short of reinstalling 13.1? john perry -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Indeed KWalletManager *should* not work as linux/*nix filenames are *case* sensitive. Proper invocation from the cl would be: kwalletmanager But, <alt><f2> invocation is more forgiving any would probably pass the command correctly. gud luk -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri http://wahoo.no-ip.org Photo Album: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/gallery2 Registered Linux User #207535 @ http://linuxcounter.net -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
